YOUR AI VISIBILITY PLATFORM

Is your business showing up in ChatGPT?

ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity recommend a handful of businesses by name. The BroDop AI Visibility Score tells you, 0 to 100, whether you're one of them. If you're not, those customers are going to your competitors. We measure it, then we fix it.

  • Report delivered in one hour
  • Published methodology

Your customers stopped asking Google first.

Think about the last time you needed a dentist, doctor, auto repair shop or plumber. Instead of opening Google and scrolling through a page of results, there is a very good chance you started a conversation with ChatGPT.

Your customers are doing the same thing.

They don't just search. They ask questions, explain what they need, and keep the conversation going.

  • "I need a dentist near me who takes my insurance."
  • "My car is making this noise. What could be wrong?"
  • "I have a plumbing emergency. Who can come out today?"

Then they ask the question that matters most:

"Who do you recommend?"

Last year, 45% of consumers used an AI tool to find a local business. The year before, it was 6%.

BrightLocal, Local Consumer Review Survey 2026

The search box you built your website around is quietly becoming the second place people look.

Right now, AI is recommending someone in your category. If you're not prioritizing AI search, those prospects are going to your competitors.

Google gives people a page of links and lets them choose. AI doesn't. It names two or three businesses, confidently, the way a trusted friend would. There's no page two.

When you're one of the names, the phone rings. When you're not, your competitor gets the call, and you never even know you lost the customer.

That's the part that should bother you. Not that you might be invisible. That you have no idea.

You don't have to guess. This is measurable.

Based on reviews and local reputation, here are three well-regarded HVAC companies in your area:

  1. Some Other Guy Heating & Air. Strong reviews, a complete Google profile, and a website AI can actually read.
  2. Not Your Company HVAC. Has been turning up in this answer since March.
  3. Third Result Climate Control. Not even the best in town. Just the easiest to find.

best physical therapist near me for a knee injury

Three physical therapy practices in your area with knee and sports rehab experience:

  1. Somebody Else Physical Therapy. Twelve fewer reviews than you. Twelve times more visible.
  2. Not You Rehab & Sports Medicine. AI has been recommending them for months.
  3. The Clinic AI Has Heard Of. That is the whole difference.
Your business isn't in this answer.Three names, and the customer called one of them. You never saw the lead.
These aren't real companies. The problem is. We run five actual queries in your category, across three platforms.

One number tells you where you stand.

The BroDop AI Visibility Score is a single number from 0 to 100. Sixty points measure what AI assistants say about you right now. Forty measure the signals that decide whether they keep saying it.

It's the only AI visibility score with a published methodology. Every point is accounted for, and you can read exactly how it's calculated before you spend a dollar.

What a higher score is actually worth.

A higher score means your business is more likely to show up when someone asks AI for a business like yours.

It's not about ranking #1 on a search page. It's about getting recommended.

When AI recommends your business to someone who needs what you sell, that can mean more calls, more leads and more customers.

That's what AI Visibility is worth.

Three steps from invisible to recommended.

Sample AI Visibility Audit

  • Cover of the sample AI Visibility Audit, prepared for Vandelay Industries Heating & Air in New York City, report date 2026-09-06. The visibility status reads Invisible: the business is currently absent from AI-driven local recommendations in New York City. An alert adds that it is absent from AI search recommendations across ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity, and that when potential customers ask AI tools for HVAC companies in New York City the business does not appear.
  • Page two of the sample audit, headed The Shift: your customers aren't searching Google the way they used to. It explains that people who need an HVAC company in New York City are asking ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity, and that AI gives them three names, not ten links. Three figures sit in a row: 63% of consumers use AI tools to find local businesses they can trust; 3 businesses named on average per recommendation; and 0 second chances if your business isn't one of them. The page closes by saying the report shows where the business stands in the AI conversation already happening about HVAC companies in New York City.
  • Score page, headed Here's where Vandelay Industries Heating & Air stands today. The score is 24 out of 100, Invisible. Across 15 queries tested on ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity the business was not recommended once. The split reads AI visibility 0 of 60, how often the business appears in results, and foundations 24 of 40, the technical signals AI uses to decide who to recommend. A band scale marks 24 low in the Invisible range, with At Risk, Vulnerable and AI-Optimized above it.
  • ChatGPT page of the sample audit, headed What ChatGPT says when someone asks for a HVAC company in New York City, with a note that these are actual search queries run when preparing the audit. Two questions are shown: What are the best HVAC companies in New York City, and Recommend HVAC companies near New York City. Under each, three competitors are named, their names blurred here, and Vandelay Industries Heating & Air is marked Not found. Showing 2 of 5 queries tested.

Citation coverage: found on 10 authoritative directories, 10 of 10 points. Google Business Profile: none found, a significant gap, 0 of 10 points.
  • Implications page of the sample audit, headed What this means for Vandelay Industries Heating & Air. It says competitors are capturing AI referrals while the business is absent, then four points: lost recommendations, a compounding gap as AI cites the businesses it already recommends, foundations first, and that it's fixable. A box headed What this tells us says one competitor, its name blurred here, appeared in 6 out of 15 queries tested, and that several competitors surface consistently while Vandelay Industries Heating & Air remains absent.
  • Next steps page, headed Here's what we recommend. The audit is the diagnosis, and the next step is a 20-minute call to walk through the results and outline a path to fix the foundations costing AI visibility. The call covers which foundation to fix first, how competing businesses are winning the AI conversation, a realistic 90-day plan from invisible to recommended, and whether AI search optimization is the right priority now. A panel invites the reader to book a 20-minute strategy call.

Vandelay Industries Heating & Air is not a real company. The queries in this sample audit were really run, and the report is shown for demonstration.

Matt SauerOwner, Springville Furniture & Mattress

We struggled with paid search campaigns last year, spending heavily with limited results. After partnering with BroDop, we saw a clear increase in quality leads and closed jobs. Our visibility across major AI search platforms has also expanded, bringing in a new stream of customers. I highly recommend BroDop for businesses serious about improving their digital performance.

Sabino ScarponeVice President, Scarpone & Sons

Working with BroDop has helped us improve our visibility across AI platforms like ChatGPT while strengthening our overall digital presence. Their team is knowledgeable, responsive, and always focused on helping us stay ahead as the way customers search continues to evolve. I'd recommend BroDop to any business looking to improve its AI visibility and digital marketing.

The questions we get asked

Is this a real measurement or a marketing number?

It's real, and it's the only AI visibility score with a published methodology. Five customer questions, three platforms, fifteen tests, plus four weighted foundation signals. Every point is accounted for. You can read the whole scoring system before you spend a dollar.

How is this different from SEO?

SEO is about helping your business appear higher in search results. AI Visibility is about getting your business mentioned when someone asks AI for a recommendation. The two work together, and strong SEO can help your AI visibility. But the goal is different. Search gives people a list of links to choose from. AI gives them an answer, often naming just a few businesses. That's where being visible to AI matters.

Is AI Search all you do?

No. AI visibility is our focus, but digital marketing is in our DNA, and our clients still need the fundamentals that help their businesses grow. We also offer BroDop AI Reviews, BroDop AI Ads, BroDop Digital Advertising, BroDop SEO and BroDop Website Development. If you need one of them, tell us on a call and we'll say honestly whether we're the right fit.

Can you guarantee I'll show up in AI results?

Yes, with Boost AI. We guarantee measurable AI visibility within 30 days of your Boost AI start date. If we can't show it, we keep working at no charge until we do. Conditions apply; read the full guarantee. What nobody can guarantee is that AI recommends you for every question a customer asks. Whether an AI assistant names your business is ultimately its decision. We establish your baseline, then our AI and Digital Marketing experts work every month to improve the signals AI uses to understand and recommend your business.

With Boost AI, you're not paying for a score. You're paying us to do the hard work behind the scenes to continuously improve your AI visibility.
